A fun and unusual vintage French gargoulette, fully glazed in an attractive combination of blue and pale yellow shades.
A gargoulette is a traditional water jug, originally designed to carry water to the workers in the fields without spilling it, hence the shape with a small opening. The thick pottery ensures that the water stays cool. This one would look wonderful on a table but also as display, as it is such an attractive piece.
25cm tall; 17cm wide (measured at its widest point)
